Come on, the DLC has been released only yesterday, I don't think we can reasonably expect bugfixes until in a few more days.

[Fury]

There's still plenty of bugs to be fixed from previous DLC's. Now the new one just adds some more. I really hoped a patch would be released to fix those older issues at least. But nevertheless, I'm a little surprised how many apparent bugs the new DLC has. What the heck are those internal testers at Bioware/EA doing for their paycheck?

[mobcdmoc3]

I haven't come across any bugs aside from people falling through the map which seems to happen in every map.

Matth, a couple others and I managed to beat Platinum, mainly due to Matth stopping them from spawning right behind us.

My bro and I came seconds away from claiming victory by ourselves. It was really, really really hard, but it's doable. We were literally hanging on by the strength of our teeth on the last round.

I'd really like to get a Platinum squad going. Just one man short right now. 130000 credits per victory is quite a bounty, it that's what it takes you people to join. If anyone wants, find me on Origin. My username is somewhere in this thread.

This is what happens when you build your QA facility 1000mi+ from your development studio.

Yup, Those noobs were trying to do the whole thing from the middle of Rio's map. If I hadn't been spending 90% of the game in the back of the map doing a whole lot of nothing aside from preventing the enemies to spawn there, we would have been overrun from both side in the first waves...

[Fury]

God damn it. Origin and many other EA services, including BSN is down for maintenance. http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/8828569.page

According to the announcement, it takes 3 and half hours. One hour gone, another two and half left. I wanna play my missus!

Rio is pretty interesting. The other side of the map has plenty of cover and lots of room to maneuver around mooks that manages to get up close and personal. It's on the opposite side of extraction point though, but unless you want the exp, there's no need to get there anyway. The only problem are banshees who can teleport right through whatever if they feel like it.

On sunday I will be leaving abroad for next week. I wonder how bad withdrawal effects I will have.

[SpardaSon21]

I'll be up for ME3 today.  Just message me on Origin.

[Fury]

So I was playing Vancouver map yesterday against reapers. At some point a banshee managed to teleport right behind me and sync-kill me. Half a minute later the wave ended and combat log said the banshee was killed by my annihilation field.

God I love the Fury adept. Poetic justice.

[The E]

Fury playing a Fury Adept. Furyception?

[MatthTheGeek]

Yo dawg, I heard you liek fury.

[Fury]

My favorite character at the moment really. Just now I had a match in glacier, annihilation field rocked.

Second fav is paladin for it's great versatility. Nothing like draining, freezing and incinerating stuff left and right. When things get close and personal, I give them piranha auto-shotgun and omni-shield in the face.

[MatthTheGeek]

The piranha is quickly becoming my second favourite weapon (after, obviously, the easy mode gun aka Krysae). The fact that I already have it at level IX probably helps.

It beats the Geth shotgun that was my previous second favourite because it's not lag-sensitive.

[Fury]

Try it with turian soldier with marksman. It's insane.

[MP-Ryan]

I haven't unlocked any of the new stuff yet, but I didn't stockpile credits beforehand.

HOWEVER - who wants to try some Platinum runs as a group one day?  I'm hesitant to even try with randoms (Gold with randoms can be dicey enough), but I'd be up for trying it with some of you folks.  I even finally unlocked the Smashguard, although I may have to promote if I don't get a respec card to fix my silly choice in not speccing him with shields fitness.  The guy is made of frickin' glass, even on silver.

I'm presently on vacation without access to a gaming PC until Sunday.

[Fury]

I'll be away abroad starting next sunday to saturday. No ME3 for me for almost a week.

I'm sad panda.

[The E]

Ping me on Origin

[MP-Ryan]

Ping me on Origin

Will do.

[MP-Ryan]

I almost forgot... I had a bit of an irritating moment earlier this week:  http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/343/index/13176733

I (obviously) didn't get hit in the July ban wave, and I haven't heard a peep from support, so I'm going to assume that everything is OK.  Just goes to show how some asshole with an exploit can ruin your week.

[The E]

The fact that cheating like that is at all possible still somewhat baffles me.

[IronBeer]

I actually got pulled into a hacked Gold game at one point. The host was a Krogan something-or-another and we were fighting Geth. All enemies apparently had a single point of Health/Armor and we had effectively infinite reserve ammo. I G-ed the F O once I realized what was up.

Coincidence?
